I am hoping for big returns so I'm a bit scared of getting bitcoin since it has been going down in value.
Big returns in any venture comes with lots of risk, especially if you want quick profits. And it going down in value depends on your angle, the price is way above what it was early this year during the thick of the bear season. If you're looking for long term profits then I would also suggest Bitcoin.
However, do not just; 'get some cryptocurrency', first learn about cryptocurrency: when to buy, how to secure your coins, i.e, protecting your wallet and device as well.

] - Possible same user.

We're not the same person.
LUNO app requires a KYC process to allow people convert cryptocurrency to fiat above a certain amount, and one needs to pay to acquire those documents. I offer to sell for the user instead when I'm converting mine. Sort of like an OTC trade. As it's someone I know, yeah I know, that sounds cliche.

I've not gone through the other users' post history intently as yet, but I'm very positive a clear distinction in posting style would be obvious between two different people after so many posts on the forum. There must also be posts which have been made at the exact same time.

Tottenham are not in the best of forms, but that doesn't take anything  away from Sheffield United. They have been brilliant this season, I've been watching them for some time and predicted a top 10 finish, I may be getting more optimistic than that. They're unbeaten in their last six EPL fixtures and sit 5th on the standings now.

Btw isn't this Teemu Pukki's seventh game without a goal ?
Lots of fantasy premier league players bought him after the first few games, I never added him to my team. Norwich is not a very strong team, they've had some good results, but are lacking talented players in some areas. Pukki in a much stronger team which holds the ball longer would be more impressive.

Faucets are no longer as profitable as before, but for a newbie the knowledge gained from reading articles and blog posts on cryptocurrency is an added advantage.
It can be part of the learning process, and they'll use those few cents to get practical knowledge about how to transfer cryptocurrencies, which wallets to use and how to protect their private details
4987  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Focus game: EPL, Matchweek 12, Liverpool VS Manchester City on: November 07, 2019, 06:06:21 PM
This is the biggest, most important Premier League match this season.
I would add, 'so far', the return leg next year would be equally if not more important. I believe both teams would still be close at that point in the season.
About the current fixture, Liverpool look to be in a better position, playing at home, UCL victory, didn't travel over the week.
I have not gotten updates on Ederson's injury as yet, but it would be a huge blow for the team.
4988  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: More time as a newbie on: November 07, 2019, 01:47:24 PM
The newer 'merit' system means you will be spending likely more time as a newbie.

...the newer merit system means one now has to make an effort at quality posting before being able to wear a signature or personal text, and earn from the forum.
A newbie will normally take 28 days to have enough activity to become a jr member, this is enough time frame to earn at least one merit
4989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [What IF] Part 4 on: November 07, 2019, 03:49:26 AM
I do not believe in superstitions. A dream about winning numbers or football match winners is a sort of predicting the future, and I doubt we can do that even in our subconscious state. I have dreamt I was watching a football match which was to be played the coming week (probably cause I think to much about important games), I didn't think too much of it, and it did not play out as I saw it.

Manchester City would have an eye on their clash with Liverpool over the weekend, and would love to make quick work of Atlanta and give their key players a much needed rest. Then again pep would be wary of complacency and would not want to overlook tonight's match.
I also expect lots of goals as we got in the reverse fixtures, City, PSG, and Tottenham few of the teams I expect to score lots of goals; possible over 3.5.
City obviously were the later and didn't have enough focus to win this match, this does not set the right tone for their weekend fixture, but it does little to harm their UCL group stage qualification.
There were not as many goals as expected in the fixtures I highlighted, only Tottenham scoring over 3 goals. But there were plenty goals on the night, and also plenty of drama.

4992  Other / Meta / Re: Is it legal to send messages to bitcointalk users? on: November 06, 2019, 04:20:17 PM
Just like emails, most people do not appreciate unsolicited messages being sent to them. Email platforms sort this into the spam section and admins on the forum can also do that based on their discretion.

It's more ethical to begin with an introductory message, preferably specified to the particular user, rather than a bulk one and it shouldn't contain links. Request for permission to include more information in subsequent messages. Very few people would reach out, but you're sure those that do are interested, and you reduce the chances of getting reported and nuked.
4993  Other / Meta / Re: Activity issues on: November 06, 2019, 11:53:38 AM
As stated above there is now a merit threshold to qualify as a jr member and wear signatures. These restrictions were implemented sometimes last year;
Due to excessive garbage-posting, you now need 1 merit to be a Jr Member. All existing Jr Members who didn't meet the requirement were demoted. Also, newbies can no longer set any signature or personal text...
4994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2019/20 on: November 05, 2019, 07:58:40 AM
I do not think Real Sociedad are dreaming yet of a league title, for teams in their position, the objective is the next game, and then the next. Barcelona and Real Madrid have been in very bad form for most part of the season, especially when you compare it with their expected standards. Madrid are experiencing a transition as most of their top players are losing form due to age and they're still reeling from the loss of Ronaldo.
Barcelona's woes are entirely technical. These are not issues you solve at a snap, and I see chances opening up for other Spanish teams to make a title charge.

Nice video, covers almost everything on post formatting and how to make threads nice and easily readable. This is an area were not only newbies make mistakes but also higher ranked members.
Let me know what you think, and what you would like to see next.
How about a custom video for boards similar to stickie threads? This would likely be under a minute and only specific boards have enough rules and guidelines to make up a video. This could be redundant as the stickies are never long reads and should be easy to digest. However some learn better with audio and visuals.

I have one question regarding this, you of course want designs to be original, but would you mind someone reposting a particular design created by them i.e I use the same entry for theymos 10th anniversary contest and for this one, or the design much be a hundred percent unique?
4997  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 100 years of deflation and disinflation - BSOV vs. Bitcoin on: November 04, 2019, 05:17:13 AM
Your graph really does not tell much, like what each axis represents. It also lacks details about the other factors which affect both currencies and it's market behavior.

I take it that it's a graph of total supply against time, i.e, number of years. Both coins have the exact same maximum supply. Both have speculative value and hence they are traded somewhat like an asset, this to an extent, introduces the concept of deflation and/or disinflation.
4998  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: November 04, 2019, 04:56:28 AM
Anything short of a victory for real Madrid would be a very bad result and further reduce their chances of qualifying to the next round. They face PSG next and would need maximum points against Galatasary. Club Brugge on the other hand would be playing damage limitation, trying to reduce the number of goals they concede. But PSG are not in the best of forms, so they could be daring and try to take something from their trip to Paris.

Cricket match prediction discussions      https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1135451.0

These threads you highlighted are discussions which are not static, they are on topics which are evolving and what was relevant 2 weeks ago isn't now. On the other hand a static thread, for example: 'what do you think about USDT?'. Is somewhat a static discussion as the factors do not change as much and there's no need for new engagements after a while.
You would assume that discussions on such topics would be exhausted after a week, but the spam keeps going, that's when it become a spam mega thread.

By the way, Jose Mourinho to Arsenal? Possible?
It is possible, but would split the fan base between those who want to maintain the clubs values and those who want success by all means. Unai Emery has not handled the team well, and the last 3 outings is a selection of his entire term at arsenal, his team can't hold on to any bit of momentum and fizzle out in the late stages.
